Project Partner: Courage to Hope

In a nutshell:

One in three women globally will be a victim of domestic violence--unless we get involved. While Courage to Hope focuses our work in Ukraine, we understand that it is a worldwide problem--local and international. This specific project is focusing on assisting Utah shelters.
We need $400 to fund an art therapy program for a Utah County domestic violence shelter. Art therapy has been used for over 60 years as a clinical treatment to help victims express themselves when words just aren't enough. Artists and volunteers will visit the shelter and together with the women and children, explore emotions, provide support, and foster healthy relationships. Please visit our website and don't just donate a dollar; donate your time and get involved. Come see your funds at work.

 

BUDGET:
1 session per month May-August and 2 sessions per month September-April
$20 per session for materials such as paper, paints, glue and craft materials.
